NiceYeah I know I'm not gonna get this one (they want $26k for it, my car's worth about $3k traded in, and I'm a broke college kid lol) but that doesn't mean I can't drive it around a bit

i put in the papers and everything on it.. was stretching budget, thankfuly didnt, becuase i was unemployed months later.
Bless my uncle/landlord. I called and explained I had found a washer/dryer used for $150 but there's no drain or 220 outlet. Well like I've said before, he doesn't like paying professional prices so low and behold he's determined he will wire me up a 220 outlet. Which he's wired up the one in the living room because the electrician forgot to add it on and it works fine. So I trust him.
It's just hilarious to hear him describe how he's gonna do it. "ahh I got some fridgerator wire at home, bout 60 foot of it, we'll just run it here to there and string it up through the wall and swing through home depot get you an outlet you'll be set." I'm like okayyy so what about the drain? "Well Mike just let it run into the kitchen sink but if you want a drain I'll just tap into the drain pipe put some goop around it and you'll have a drain." I said no no no! Don't drill into the pipe or anything the sink is fine
LOL bless him. He tries. He's king of riggin
hey hes doing right just not a grade stuff, i used to work with alot higher voltages then that. just has to wire it in the fuse box correcty but its not hard or anything. just 2 120volt wires and a common
Yeah he's the one that put the breakers out in the fuse box to make the living room work on a 220. See, story is, there was a fire in the other side of the duplex (which has 1 more bedroom than mine) and it burnt the back part of the house down. Well along with it went the old fuse boxes and such. So we got new fuse boxes. When they did it, and which my uncle mike was probably stressed and pissed off and not always smiles and charms, needless to say they forgot the 220 recepticals.
So he made those work I just hope he can make this one in the kitchen work. His boss that he works for on the side is a professional of sorts he said he'd get him to make sure it's right in the fuse box. He pointed to the (whatever you call the metal pipes the wires run in) "well we might not pass through there but you'll have electricity, hehe." I just died laughing I'm like okayyy if you're sure about it.
Well crap, I was typing up a text to send to someone about something on craigslist....I was going to save it as a draft so I could send it tomorrow at a more decent time....but no. My finger accidentally touches the send button just enough and off it goes. Damn smartphones with no buttons and not being able to cancel the sending of a message. I feel so stupid for sending it so late.
the metal you speak of in conduit, and a 220 extenison cable lol wont fit with normal gauge wires in there already, really in a house yo dont need conduit, not a regulation or anything just as long as the house has good ground. or he can get some romex wire but thats really just for commerical use. either way im sure he wouldnt do something to intentionally put someone in harms way.
Nah, I just know my uncle and he's rig happy. I told him the tile around the dryer vent wasn't done properly he said he'd redo it I'm like yeahhhhh damn right
AND he said I could take the washer and dryer out of the rent I'm like hell yeahhhh! But yeah it was done all fancy, both boxes all the wires run through the conduit down the house and then under the house through the crawl space and up the walls. Luckily there's already a place in the wall with a box to hold the receptical and there's already 2 thick wires there that could hold a 220 he's just gotta figure out where they lead and make em hot. He was testing him he said "well I think these are dead... *time passes* YEAH they're dead I'm grabbing with both hands." I busted out laughing. He's a funny guy but he means well.
Only thing I didn't like about his wiring plans was that he said if he couldn't get it ran up the wall he'd run it through the floor around the dryer vent I thought oh boy...hot 220 wires coming up through the floor around a metal dryer vent. LOVELY
A review of grassfed beef:
I'm eating a pound of ribeye. And it's tastier than the normal stuff.
But not $5 tastier. Maybe because, for some reason, it's from Australia. I'm sure I'm getting some awesome grassfed nutrition here, and it's great if you eat a steak a week (or a month? I lost track of how normal people eat.), but I eat 2-5lbs of steaks a week. The way everyone talked this up, I thought I'd have an out-of-body experience. Nah dog, just slightly tastier.
An ex of mine was all about organic stuff and grassfed etc. After realizing how much these retards are getting taken (like the veggie lovers and mcdonalds fry issue..lol) I always called it orgasmic instead of organic. The taste isn't that much different if at all and in reality.... we need to eat. If you want organic..plant a damn garden like my parents did when I was a kid.
Stocked up on smokes again.... 53 bucks for a carton
Scott..you gotta wonder if he is going to start hopping around like a kangaroo...lol
